Five star service received from Jay, very quick and easy. I took my chromebook to him for a screen repair after finding his details on Google and he sorted it within a few days, with no issues. Even my office app is working now. Grateful to have this service local to me. Jay, any chance you can fix television screens too? More...

100% recommend Jay. I asked him to assess my water-damaged laptop and he was honest with me about the uncertain nature of water damage, he was transparent about the costs of his service and completed his work on my laptop quickly, providing me with updates along the way. He was also really flexible with times I could drop off and pick up my laptop from him. Thank you so much Jay, hopefully won't need laptop repair again but if I do I will come back to you :) More...

Jay was brilliant when I had issues with my computer,mostly it was slow & sluggish internet connection but also a few other things. .My knowledge base is quite limited so I needed the support. He came to the house which made it straight forward. The good news is that it is all working fine now & I wouldn’t have managed it myself so I am grateful. Jay was professional & trustworthy & was upfront about costs . I would definitely recommend him. More...

The second time I have needed to use Jay. He arrived next morning, bang on time and had my computer diagnosed and re-connected to the internet inside ten minutes. He also solved a power problem on our old tablet. Excellent and pleasant service with a very reasonable price. More...

I highly recommend Jay, he’s very helpful, knowledgeable, kind and very responsive. Jay offered to take a look at my daughter’s broken laptop when I contacted him despite initial thoughts that it was unlikely the problem could be fixed. When it was apparent it couldn’t be fixed (due to no fault of Jay) he didn’t charge me. I still gave him some money as I really appreciated him taking the time to investigate. Thanks Jay! More...

Jay serviced my fairly old laptop quickly and efficiently - about 5 years since I last had it serviced. He clearly explained what he had done to get it running without all the annoying pop ups. Great service - 2 day turn around and flexible about drop off and pick up but most importantly it reassuring to find someone you trust. More...

Well what can I say about a very kind and extremely caring person who wants to help you with any computer issues.11/10 . Just pick up the phone and he will help you. Jay appreciates that’s we are not all computer savvy. I took my son’s computer he fixed it as he had a virus. We tried to sort it out ourselves but with no knowledge on this was making the problem worse. Thank you so much for your prompt response and help today. If I have any other issues will look no further. Thanks again . More...

Jay phoned to say he would be 15 minutes late due to traffic. Then arrived as per new schedule. He then worked systematically through the various "niggles" my computer had explaining what he was doing every time. Just what you want.

Jay provided a great service, the original screen was not in stock and he still persisted to find the correct one so that the laptop screen could be replaced with a touch screen one. He was also very easy to contact during the process and always kept me updated with timings- would definitely recommend. More...

Jay found the root of my email and connection problems that had been causing problems for a long time. He was also able to help me with other tablet, mobile and printer related problems. Reliable and I do not hesitate to recommend Jay to other people who need computer help to get up and running again Update: Jay has been assisting me on a regular basis over the last 5 years +. He has tremendous knowledge on a wide range of subjects, very skillful at problem solving, empathizing with people like myself who have relatively low levels of computer skill, extremely apt and able to get key information very quickly. Above all very reliable and an excellent ally to help me get on in life with technology and other matters. Highly recommended. More...

I had an oldish desktop that refused to power up. Jay collected it the very same day I contacted him. Gave a rough idea of cost, then confirmed once he’d delved inside. The machine was promptly returned in perfect working order, with Windows updated etc. Absolutely delighted. Like owning a brand new machine all over again. Very friendly professional service.Would recommend to anyone. More...

Jay has for many years successfully maintained our family's computers, but recently I was very worried when my rather ancient computer suddenly failed with a slight smell of burning! I hadn't managed to back up any of my files which included irreplaceable precious photos of a family wedding and our grandson. Jay was cautiously optimistic, diagnosing the problem on the evidence I provided over the phone. Within a couple of days he delivered my fully working computer back to me, and stayed to help me to set up a back up drive and answer all my computer queries with complete confidence, explaining in a way that I could understand and absorb. I wouldn't go to anybody else with my computer problems, I can totally trust Jay's depth of knowledge and commitment to his work. I can also understand when he explains things to me! More...

Jay took a look at an old PC and water damaged laptop. He responded very quickly and with consideration regarding the problems and repair. He even suggested a possible cheaper alternative to fix the laptop. The PC was fixed quickly and beyond my skill level though I built it some years before. Jay is very polite, easy to deal with and prompt. Good a service as you could wish for. Prices completely reasonable too. Strongly recommend. More...

What do you love most about your job?
I enjoy helping my clients with their computing issues and I take great satisfaction in getting to the bottom of technical problems. Resolving a seemingly intractable problem and knowing that I've provided a great customer experience are two things that please me, and it's fantastic to have so many returning customers as it provides tangible feedback that I'm providing a valuable service.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I understand the frustration felt when your computer stops working, and I have spent many years developing my technical skills to be able to resolve a whole range of issues. In work environments people usually have technical support on the end of the phone, but there seemed to be a lack of accessible technical support for individuals and small businesses, which is what inspired me to start Jay Matthew Computers.
Why should our clients choose you?
I provide a professional IT support call out service with a proven track record for customer service excellence.
